It’s been since December of 2019 that the LNMS Band was able to perform a live concert with an audience of family and friends. Finally, Mrs. Jennings and her amazing students were able to give the people what they want! The evening was emotional, as Mrs. Jennings will admit to getting a bit teary eyed as she led her students after these many months. What an outstanding performance to cap off a year of challenges while showcasing how strong our Knight musicians are! |

Knight Sports - by Coach Hernandez |

This week we concluded our Intramural Sports season by hosting our Basketball Championships. Congratulations to Team 4 (A League) and Team 3 (B League) on winning the championship. A big thank you goes to all of the participants that were a part of our Intramural Sports Season throughout this semester.
It was exciting to see the amount of talent here in the Kingdom and what the future holds for our sports programs. As we were unable to have a normal regular sports season, we were still able to make the most of this situation and this would not have been possible without the hard work of our amazing coaches and staff. I would like to thank Coach Vazquez, Coach Stoeckigt, Coach Ware, Coach Nuckels, Coach Vicenty, Coach Jones, Coach Jennings, Coach Durkin, Coach Durant, Coach Rivera, Dean Thate, and Dean Berson for all of their help in assuring our students had a fun and successful Intramural experience during these unprecedented times.
We cannot wait to kick off our regular sports season in August beginning with soccer! As usual, it begins the first week of school, be on the lookout over the summer for information on soccer dates and information! Please reach out to our head soccer coaches if you have any questions. Boys Head Soccer Coach: Jose.RiveraNazario@ocps.net and Girls Head Soccer Coach: Jose.RiveraNazario@ocps.net
On behalf of the PE and Athletic Department we hope everyone has a fantastic summer! Stay safe, healthy, and active! Go Knights!
~ Coach Hernandez

Many of our community members and families know that Lake Nona Middle School opened in 2009 as part of Lake Nona High School. While the current building was being constructed, LNMS was housed on the high school campus, but was a separate entity. Once our beautiful school was completed, everyone moved over to our current location. And some of those teachers still remain here at LNMS as of this year. Those staff members were recently recognized as Founding Knights after our 10 year anniversary last year. Congratulations to these faculty and staff members for their longevity in the Kingdom! |

Mrs. Newlan- Mrs. Newlan is very good at making mnemonic Devices to remember things and she does a lot of fun games to study.
Ms. Beyhl- She has been very nice and is the nicest teacher.
Mr. Thomson- For being the actual best teacher ever, thank you so much.
Ms. Warner- I especially chose her because she has a lot of students who scream and make the class miserable for her to teach, but she always tries her best and she succeeds at it.
Mrs. Benetz- She is my favorite teacher because she explains everything so nicely that you don't have to ask any more questions. She looks out for you and checks up on you if you are having a bad day. She teaches us advanced things, but when she talks about it, I feel like it is so simple. She has the sympathy and compassion some teachers just don't have.
Mrs. Clermont- She is very good at art and she is nice and shows how to draw stuff, she breaks it down to make it easier for us to draw.
